Every summer, my family goes on a trip to the lake. We usually go near the end of July. It is so much fun. We go swimming, go tubing, and we also just ride the boat. My grandparents always get there early to get the boat in, and to get food ready. We always look forward to eating my grandma's good food. When we first get there, it always smells like all of my grandma's food.

When we are there, I always hear boats zooming by our dock. I hear my little cousins running around and yelling because they are ready to get on the boat. I see them in their bathing suits. I see the big, beautiful lake right outside of our lake house. My smallest cousin says that our boat is as big as the Titanic.

We always have big, juicy watermelons that taste so good. They are as big and watery as an ocean. I taste the great meals that my grandma makes. I feel the warmth of the boat after being under the sun for so long. When I go swimming, I feel the smooth sand at the bottom. It is like I am walking on a cloud.

The lake is so much fun. It is even better when my family is there. Out of all my trips to the lake, this one is my favorite. I hope we go more than once a year maybe. That would be really great!
